On the international front, "4 Minutes" is already Top 1 across Europe in airplay and Top 5 around the world. Already playing in heavy rotation on radio stations across the US, the single in Canada is the fastest selling song in the history of the Canadian music charts. The song can also be heard as part of Sunsilk's multi-million dollar ad campaign."

I know many poo poo Madonna as a has been but she is still able to sell big time.

I hope people aren't upset with my comments on here. My sense after reading some comments is that they have become upset about my presence here.

I come here to hopefully entertain when there seems to be some bit of tension.

My only goal is to make people laugh. That may not be the case at times but I am a good person.

I am a wonderful son, loving brother, good friend and honest person.

Yes, I comment about sex but when Althouse's brings up a sex blog I have to make a comment. For me to not comment about sex would be like Madonna not dancing.

So if I have offended anyone I apologize but that is me. You can read it and get angry because you believe I have destroyed the comment section. Or you can ignore it if it is not your cup of tea. Or you may get a laugh from it-which is the intent.

Interesting that a 1940's artistic rendition of a woman in a bra doesn't show any hint of cleavage or breasts above the bra line. Yet the 1940's are not generally regarded as a particularly conservative era, as for example the Victorian era (though Victorian dresses ironically showed ample cleavage-- their big hangups had to do with legs and feet.)

Titus: The thing is that comments are a conversation, not a monologue. They bounce around like the silver ball in the pinball machine and your 'score' goes up when there's interchange between other commenters. Just look at this thread: Your Madonna comments might've generated more interchange on the Madonna post from today. Meade joked about Chuckles and hinted at Maidenform, I linked to an old memory [mammory] from this very blog, Trooper chimed in with more candy talk, Ron brought in a whole Casablanca subtext. Get it? We're riffing on the words. Of course sex or double entendres are welcome here, but not for every doggone pixel you type.

And I thought you said you were from Waunakee. The only Waunakee in the world, I might add.

I also live in NYC and try really hard but I am a midwestern at heart.

Just ask any of my NYC friends. They make fun of my midwest background all the time.

They called me Ellie May (from the Beverly Hillbillies) when I was college in Boston. Also, they told me I talked like the Church Lady.

But I still love Wisconsin. I couldn't live there right now in my life but I love it. I love the friendly people. I love the food, friday fish frys are my favorite, I love Madison, I love Lake Wisconsin and I love my family.

What I love about NYC is the ability to have a really good job at a really good company and gain respect by my fellow coworkers who I think of as accomplished.

I also love the fact that I have a very nice loft in a fabulous neighborhood. I also love the ability to know I can run outside my loft at any time and go to a really exciting club. I love the ability to go to fabulous restaurants and fabulous stores. I love to walk around with the dogs and see all of the interesting people.

I love the fact that I earned this all on my own and realize that many others that are not as strong could achieve this.

The Gowanus Canal is between Carroll Gardens and Park Slope and flows to the river past Red Hook. There is often a barge at the stone works and it has two drawbridges. Normally it can identified by objects floating in it which often include paper cups, used pampers and the occasional dead Puerto Rican.
